RJD President Lalu Prasad on Friday hit back at Rajnath Singh saying that he was trying to portray himself and not Narendra Modi as the real candidate for the top post.

The head of the Kabir Mutt in Varanasi has said Narendra Modi does not reflect the composite culture of this temple town and cautioned that his contesting election from the “sacred place” may “vitiate” its centuries-old unity between Hindus and Muslims.

After DD was involved in controversy over editing Narendra Modi's interview where he referred to Priyanka Gandhi as his daughter, Gujarat CM's office came to his rescue and published the video to clarify their claims. In the video, Modi does not refer to Priyanka as his daughter but talks about Congress leader Ahmed Patel as his close friend.
